In this episode of War Against Weeds, Sarah and Joe sit down with Dr. Jane Mangold of Montana State University to unpack the ecology, spread, and management of cheatgrass and other invasive grasses. Jane explains why species like cheatgrass and ventenata are thriving in the Western U.S., how fire and climate patterns influence their behavior, and what tools land managers can use to stay ahead of infestations. The conversation covers biology, prevention, grazing, herbicide strategies, and new resources available to support rangeland health. https://www.invasivegrasses.com/
